[torana355]

Manly paying 8 bucks at halftime to win. hmmmmm

 

[lismore_fan]

Don't we have the best back line in the League?
Guess they forgot to get off the bus.
Without Jamie, it is very ordinary.

Second taters

I have been following Manly since 1967 this is the worst side since the northern eagle debacle

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Taufua looking really healthy upon his return. His legs are farkin' massive.

 

[Robeagle]

We have got no halves

 

[Dan]

The first captain to make a pirate walk the plank would have been considered creative at the time

Sure the pirate may be, that doesn't make the plank creative though

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Seems like we always get a lopsided possession count against us when we play in Melbourne.

 

[Loobs]

We defend better then drop the ball cold in attack. We attack well then give away dumb**** penalties to get the opposition out of trouble.

I don't know how to fix the mess that is the 2015 Sea Eagles.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

A simple question: why is the attitude there tonight. Is there a switch?

 

[Rodo]

Great run from Horo

 

[Daddycool]

Last playing first and they are, having a real crack. Unfortunately, they're in such horrible form, it would take a miracle for them to win tonight.

 

[Eagles2nv]

well at least we are looking better than the last few weeks. We play like this the last few weeks and we probably would have won.

 

[Wombat64]

We aren't far off a win...,,will be sooner rather than later

 

[mave]

Spread it wide coming out from our red zone.
Please do something different. ...35m sets doesnt cut it.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Well bucketing rain isnt going to help. Rain also means potentially more injuries.

 

[pjayz]

nathan fien sounds like a jockey

 

[Rodo]

Rain tumbling down

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Boys are having a dig, I'm happy!!
